In a world scoured by powerful highstorms that shape both land and life, the age of heroes is a distant memory. The Knights Radiant, protectors of mankind, are gone, their magical swords and armor now the priceless prizes of warring kingdoms. In their absence, a new war is waged on the desolate Shattered Plains, a conflict born from the assassination of a king, with no end in sight.

The story follows the intertwined destinies of three individuals. A highprince and legendary general is plagued by visions of an ancient past, causing him to question his own sanity and the bloody path his people follow. A young, disgraced soldier is condemned to slavery in a position where death is a near certainty, and he must fight to rediscover his will to protect those even more hopeless than himself. A young scholar on a desperate, secret quest finds herself drawn into the circles of the world's most powerful players. As an ancient threat begins to stir, these three must navigate political intrigue, personal tragedy, and the forgotten secrets of a shattered civilization to find the answers that could save their world.
